This customer wanted a budget version of the Miss Hawaii costume with feather headdress and skirt but in bright vibrant yellows, reds, browns, and oranges to look like fire.
A side view of the skirt portion. The skirt was made up of several types of feathers, from ostrich, to coque, to many bird varieties in several different lengths. The whole skirt was done in various layers attached to a belt that fastened in the front.
A glimse of the back and all the layers of feathers.
A view of the headdress with the various lengths and types of feathers. All were affixed onto a custom made headband to support it and built in loops for bobby pins to affix to the hair.
